Andre 3000 blessed his fans with two new records in honor of Mother’s Day.
Three Stacks released “Me&My (To Bury Your Parents)” and “Look Ma No Hands” late Saturday night via Soundcloud. Both songs were written several years ago, Pitchfork reports.
“Look Ma No Hands” is a 17-minute instrumental jazz cut by Andre on the bass clarinet, and James Blake on the piano.
The rapper’s mother, Sharon Benjamin Hodo, passed away in May 2013. Shortly before releasing the tracks, he shared a screenshot of one of their last conversations using the hashtag: #momslastwords
He also shared handwritten lyrics of “Me & My” with the accompanying caption:
Happy Mother’s Day I’m sure all the cards, dinners, flowers and last minute gifts are appreciated but I’ve learned the best gift a parent could get is to simply know their child is ok. Link in bio
My heart goes out to those who are unable to celebrate the holiday with their mother. It’s not easy losing a loved one, especially not a mother.
